Penn was purchased by Pure Fishing I am pretty sure, the same group that owns Berkley and a million other companies - Fenwick, etc.

They cheapened their product line, did not stay on the front end of development very much, didn't fix SIMPLE issues, and made themselves irrelevant in the markey WE buy products in.

They also allowed other manufactures to step in and provide better products in our market segment.

2 years ago Pure Fishing did purchase Penn from Sea Striker corp.
1 month after PureFishing aquired Penn they sold out to JARDEN CORP. and moved most of penn overseas.
